This is just enough of a cookbook to make me love cooking more. I get overwhelmed by the massive books out there that have every dish under the sun.
This one's organized by vegetable and has about 3 recipes per veggie. Just enough to get you wanting to cook more often once you've tried a couple of them.

I have found the recipes to be delicious, the photography beautiful, the gardening tips helpful, and the book itself a pleasure to hold and feel.

This is a great cookbook.

Right now (end of December) might be a good time to read this book in Australia, but in Vienna it's a time to dream about veggies, not really to eat them. But summer will come again and I'll be all set to try these recipes out.

BTW, why do the Australians put out such great vegetable cookbooks?

a most excellent 5 star read

Mr. Wilkinson’s Vegetables
I loved the cover, title and I am a veggie lover, this book is for me!
The pictures are mouthwateringly beautiful. The descriptions of the
foods, recipes and spices are sensual. The recipes themselves are
fantastically ….”veggigasmic” I am in awe and slightly intimidated.
Sheesh. What to try first....
Each section has a vegetable as it’s star, first up: Asparagus
You get a description of the name, origin, native of, when to pick &
plant, how to prepare, wonderful information you might never know.
Just listen to the recipe names …Blanched white asparagus with
ricotta & Belgian endive… A salad of raw asparagus, skordalia
prosciutto & dukka. And so on and so on…
recipes that blew my mind…roasted brussel sprouts with vanilla-confit
chestnuts and thyme, say what?
How about Sauteed Tuscan cabbage & Matsutake mushroom pasta!
Or, baked long green peppers with couscous & currants…yum.
Try this one.. salad of cauliflower, smoked salmon and strawberry..?!?
Or, frozen vanilla syrup-coated fennel….huh? Or, horseradish wafers!
How about rose-geranium-stewed blueberries with creamed rice pudding!
Try; nettle & crab ravioli with swiss chard & glasswort, I am swooning…:)
Parsnip chippies you say? Shepherd’s pie croquettes? Tomato kasundi?
Or, salted & lemoned raw zucchini, fromage blanc & grated almond…sigh.
Do you “taste” what I mean? Pairing foods that seem not to go together…
Mr. Wilkinson has a Mrs. And she has a recipe as well, The Mrs. Swiss
Chard & feta pie, simply scrumptious! There is also an index in the back.
I have already tried the “foil roasted big beets with ricotta and mint” I think I cried a little with joy at the first bite. I am so tickled to try the pickled asparagus! I have the ingredients to try “crushed fava bean & lentils with goat cheese & pear” and “grated carrot , preserved lemon, raisin & ginger pickle’ and I am going to have this delightful “pickle” with a wedge of brie just like my new favorite Veggie man, Mr. Wilkinson says to do!
As you can tell I am just thrilled with Mr. Wilkinson’s Vegetables, do yourself a culinary favor and get this book!
